  • For the ecological study on the gobioid (Favonigobius gymnauchen), samples were collected in the Korean coasts from 1983 to 1995, and the process of ovarian maturation, spawning season, settling period of young individuals and growth were investigated with the specimens collected from Kunsan coast. The ovarian egg development of this species underwent three stages; growth stage from March to April, maturity stage from May to June and spawning stage in July. All the adults died after spawning in late July. Young individuals of total length 10 mm began to live a bottom life in the tide pool of shallow waters in early and middle August. The total length of these individuals reached about 42.1 mm (mean 36.7 mm) in late November. The largest specimen examined in this study was 85.0mm of male. After that time, individuals of this species inhabited in subtidal zone from December to May of the next year. The Favonigobius gymnauchen is distributed at 17 areas of shallow waters and estuaries in the western and southern coasts of Korea.

  • The gonad index, condition index, reproductive cycle and spawning of the pen shell Atrina (Servatrina) pectinata were investigated using samples from the subtidal zone of Nokdo on the Boryeong coastal waters of Korea. Samples were collected monthly by SCUBA divers for one year from January to December, 2001. A. (Servatrina) pectinata is dioecious and oviparous. The spawning season of this species occurred once a year from June to August, with the main spawning occurring between June and July when the seawater temperature was around $20^{\circ}C$. Ripe oocytes were about 60-65 ${\mu}m$ in diameter. The reproductive cycle of this species could be classified into five successive stages; early active stage (November to March), late active stage (February to May), ripe stage (April to July), partially spawned stage (June to August), and spent/inactive stage (August to October). Monthly changes in the gonad index reached a maximum (4.6) in May (ripe stage), thereafter, the GI values gradually decreased from June to August when spawning occurred continuously. Therefore, monthly changes in the GI values showed a similar pattern to the gonadal phase. The condition index (CI) of the meat part without the posterior adductor muscle reached the maximum in June (ripe and partially spawned stage) and the minimum in September (spent/inactive stage), Accordingly, monthly changes in the condition indice of the meat part without the posterior adductor muscle coincided with the gonadal phases.

  • 전기 고생대 태백산분지 영월층군은 탄산염-규산쇄설성 퇴적암 복합체로서 하부로부터 삼방산층, 마차리층, 와곡층, 문곡층, 영흥층으로 이루어져있다. 영월층군에 대한 순차층서학적 분석에 따르면 중기 캠브리아기에 일어난 범람에 의해 최하부의 규산쇄설성 사질 퇴적암이 우세한 삼방산층이 퇴적되었다. 이어지는 후중기 캠브리아기 ~ 전후기 캠브리아기에 지속적으로 발생한 빠른 해수면 상승으로 마차리층 하부에는 셰일, 입자암, 각력암층을 협재한 사면 혹은 심부 램프 시퀀스가 형성되었다. 후기 캠브리아기 동안 지속된 해수면 상승은 실질적인 퇴적가능공간을 창출하였고, 조하대 환경에 탄산염 퇴적물 공장이 만들어졌으며, 탄산염 대지에는 마차리층을 구성하는 탄산염암이 우세한 조하대 시퀀스가 형성되었다. 마차리층 상부의 와곡층은 후후기 캠브리아기의 완만한 해수면 상승국면에서 만들어진 탄산염 램프 시퀀스로 해석되며, 퇴적 당시에는 리본 탄산염암과 탄산염 역암을 포함하는 이회암으로 구성되었던 것으로 보인다. 와곡층은 퇴적직후에 일차적으로 캠브리아기와 오르도비스기 사이의 해수면 하강국면에서 불안전 백운암화 과정을 거치고, 후에 심부 매몰 속성환경에서 광범위한 백운암화 작용을 받은 것으로 해석된다. 전기 오르도비스기에도 세계적인 해수면 상승과 해침은 지속되었으며, 영월층군의 조하대 램프 퇴적환경은 그대로 유지되어 탄산염 역암층을 협재하는 석회이암과 이회암이 교호하는 전형적인 램프 시퀀스인 문곡층이 형성되었다. 문곡층은 중기 오르도비스기에 퇴적된 것으로 알려진 영흥층에 덮여 있다. 영흥층은 주로 윤회층리를 보이는 조석대지 탄산염암으로 이루어져 있으며, 문곡층의 최상부에서 조하대 퇴적환경이 영흥층의 조석대지 퇴적환경으로 변화한다. 세계적 1차 규모 순차 경계면인 소크(Sauk)와 티피카누(Tippecanoe) 시퀀스의 경계는 영흥층 중부에서 관찰되는 최소퇴적가능공간 부근에서 인지된다. 중기 오르도비스기 초기의 세계적 해수면 하강과 이어지는 해수면의 급격한 상승은 영흥층의 전반적인 상향 천해화 윤회층의 전진퇴적체를 형성하였다. 영월층군이 퇴적된 영월 탄산염 대지의 상대적 해수면 변동곡선을 복원해 보면 같은 태백산 분지의 태백층군이 퇴적된 태백 탄산염 대지의 해수면 변동 곡선과 유사함을 확인할 수 있다. 이것은 두 개의 탄산염 대지가 유사한 조 구조적 운동 역사를 갖는다는 것을 의미하며, 이러한 유사성은 영월층군이 형성된 영월 탄산염 대지가 비록 태백층군이 퇴적된 태백 탄산염 대지와 상이한 퇴적시스템을 갖기는 하지만 상대적으로 가까운 지역에 속해 있었음을 암시한다. 퇴적층서 분석결과에 따르면 영월 탄산염 대지는 태백 탄산염 대지에 비해 상대적으로 열린 천해 환경이었을 것으로 추측된다. 고생대 후기와 중생대 전기에 걸쳐 발생한 북중국지괴와 남중국지괴의 충돌 시기에 영월 탄산염 대지와 태백 탄산염 대지가 복잡한 이동과정을 거쳐 현재의 태백산 분지에 모이게 된 것으로 해석된다.

  • Seaweeds provide habitats in which marine animals can spawn and develop, and serve as a food supply for algaegrazing species such as sea urchins and abalone. Recently, seaweed species have disappeared from coastal ecosystems, leaving barren ground, defined as habitats that have lost their algae forests and where coralline algae containing calcium carbonate components have become encrusted on rocks. The biological causes of barren ground include grazing by herbivores and excessive seaweed harvest. The environmental harm caused by the spread of barren ground includes accelerated eutrophication following the reduction in seaweed, which plays an important role in oceanic purification. In the present study, we identified the relationships between various seaweed species and the occurrence of barren ground. Subtidal benthic macroalgal flora and community structure were observed seasonally on barren ground along vertical transects of rocky shores of Bihwa, Samchuck, and the east coast of Korea from February to November 2006. Fifty-eight seaweed species were identified, including 7 green, 15 brown, and 36 red algae species. There were between 6 and 28 species among seasons. Over the whole study period, average seaweed biomass (g wet wt $m^{-2}$) was 241.90 g, with a seasonal range of 25.26 to 760.34 g. Seaweed biomass declined with increasing seawater depth and ranged between 91.26 and 422.08 g. The vertical distribution of algae was characterized by Undaria pinnatifida and Sargassum honeri at 5 m, S. honeri and U. pinnatifida at 10 m, and U. pinnatifida and Agarum clathratum at 15 m depth. Seasonal patterns in community indices were not found. Community indices showed different patterns along vertical shoreline gradients; the dominance index increased but the richness, evenness, and diversity indices decreased with seawater depth. Sea urchin density was 8 to 24 individ. $m^{-2}$ in Bihwa. These urchin populations had significantly aggregated spatial patterns and recurrent destructive grazing appeared to be occurring.

  • Seasonal variation in seaweed biomass was examined along vertical shore gradients on the rocky shores of Nachido and Odo Islands, the Yellow Sea, Korea, from August 2007 to April 2008. The average annual biomass of seaweed was 404.07 g wet wt/$m^2$, with seasonal variation from 232.61 g in the spring to 754.90 g wet wt/$m^2$ in the summer at Nachido Island. At Odo Island, average biomass was 270.82 g wet wt/$m^2$ and ranged from 48.35 g in the winter to 451.66 g wet wt/$m^2$ in the spring. Seaweed biomass exhibited an even distribution across the shore gradient from the high intertidal zone to -5 m depth at Nachido Island, whereas seaweed biomass was concentrated from the mid intertidal zone to -1 m depth in the subtidal zone at Odo Island. Sargassum thunbergii was the most dominant species, occupying 28.24% (114.12 g wet wt/$m^2$) and 36.57% (99.05 g wet wt/$m^2$) of total biomass at Nachido and Odo Islands, respectively. Subdominant seaweed species was Gelidium amansii, comprising 15.23% (61.52 g wet wt/$m^2$) and 14.70% (39.82 g wet wt/$m^2$) of total biomass at Nachido and Odo Islands, respectively. Dominant functional group was the coarsely branched-form group, which grows under moderate environmental conditions and comprised 93.34% (377.15 g wet wt/$m^2$) and 66.96% (181.35-g wet wt/$m^2$) of total biomass at Nachido and Odo Islands, respectively. Percentage biomass of sheet-form seaweeds growing at relatively disturbed and polluted areas was approximately 20.83% (56.40 g wet wt/$m^2$) of total biomass along the Odo rocky shore. Based on the biomass and functional-form composition of seaweeds, we concluded that Nachido Island provides better environmental conditions than does Odo Island. In addition, the vertical distribution and dominant species of seaweeds on the two islands were very similar, but the functional-form composition of seaweeds at Nachido Island differed slightly from that at Odo Island.

  • Seogundo is a small island adjacent to the southern coast of Jeju Island and connected to it by a boulder beach at low tide Surveys of this area were conducted from 2001 to 2009 to enumerate the mollusks there and also to examine their diversity, relative abundance, and ecological relationships. Both the boulder beach itself and several large tide pools were studied, including the coarse sand substrate and several species of seaweed and coralline algae found in the tide pools. Of the 121 species obtained or observed, there were 97 gastropods, 16 bivalves, and 8 polyplacophorans. Live specimens were obtained for about half of those species. About one third were found on rocky substrate, with the most common species being Nodilittorina radiata and Nerita japonica in the upper intertidal zone, N. radiata and Littorina brevicula in the middle intertidal, and Turbo (Lunella) coronata coreensis and Acanthopleura japonica in the lower intertidal and shallow subtidal. The seaweeds and coralline algae contained about 40% of all mollusk species. The most common mollusks in two species of brown seaweed were Ittibittum parcum, Musculus nanus, and Euplica scripta. In a species of red seaweed, Komaitrochus pulcher was the most frequent, as in the coralline algae, along with M. nanus. The coarse sand in the tidepools contained about 25% of the species, with the Cerithiidae having the largest number. A sample of beach drift contained 17 species, with Bittium aleutaceum and Rissoina (Phosinella) pura being most common. Most species, about 60%, were found in a variety of habitats, especially the marine flora; few species exhibited any habitat preferences. Biographically, Jeju Island is part of the Warm Temperate Northwest Pacific Province and the East China Sea ecoregion with a strong faunal affinity with southern Japan, eastern China, and northeastern Taiwan. Zonal-geographical groupings reveal that the fauna is mainly subtropical-low boreal, preferring moderately warm water, with a somewhat smaller number of tropical-subtropical species.

  • The reproductive ecology of the purple shell, Rapana venosa was investigated by the histological observations on depositions of the egg capsules, and hatching of larvae in the laboratory and the subtidal zone of the vicinity of piung-do, Chollabud-do, west coast of korea, for one year from June 1992 to May 1993. The results are summarized as follows:1. Rapana venosa is dioecious in sex. The ovary is composed of a number of ovarian lobules, and the testis comprises a number of ovarian lobules, and the testis comprises of gonads could be classified into 4 stages in males and 5 stages in females: 1) growing stage(in female subdivided into 2 stages of early and late growing stage). 2)mature stage. 3)spent stage or copulationstage. 4)rdcovering stage. The early growing stage in females of the purple shell was in September through February, late gorwing stage was in October to March, mature stage was in September to January, mature stage was in September to July, copulation stage was in Februaty to June and recovering stage in April to October.3. Spawning occurred 3-4 times at intervals of 1-3 days, and completed within 10 days from the beginning of spawning during the spawning season of the year.4. From the results of laboratory and field observations, egg masses are composed of a number of egg capsules, egg masses are occurred from May to late August, and in mid August depositions of egg mass in composed of 90-113 egg capsules, fecundity in an egg capsule was ranged 984 to 1,241 eggs(average 1,096 egg). Therefore, fecundity in total egg capsules spawned per individual during the spawning season is estimated as approximately 320,000 to 450,000 egges.5. The incubation period during deposition of an egg capsule to hatching larvad tood 17 days at 18.3-20.4%C(water temperature)and 1.021 (specific gravity fo sea water).

  • 허베이스피리트호의 원유유출로부터 오염된 해안이 어떻게 변화되어 가는지를 조사하는 것을 목적으로 하여, 태안군 이원면 만대(가로림만)로부터 소원면 파도리 해변까지 11개 정점에서 현장조사를 실시한 결과, 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1년이 경과한 시점에서 관측한 결과 관측지점 10개 정점 모두에서 잔존유는 발견되지 않았으나, 구름포 해변의 경우 아직도 토양중에 잔존유가 존재하고 있는 것으로 파악되었다. 오염된 태안 해안의 조속한 복원은 100만이 넘는 자원봉사자와 지역주민의 방제노력이 이루어낸 성과라고 판단되며, 또한 파도의 반복적인 작용에 의해서 조간대에 표착한 표착유가 제거되었으리라 판단된다. 조간대에 표착해 있던 원유의 일부는 물리화학적 그리고 생물학적 풍화작용으로 분해되었고, 나머지 기름은 모래입자나 미세토립자(minerals)와 부착되어 기름과 미세토립자의 합체물(OMA)의 형태로 조간대나 조하대에 분산되었으리라 판단된다.
